Treatments are available for pregnancy induced back pain, sacroiliac (SI) and pelvic pain, sciatica and other postnatal aches and pains including neck and shoulder pain from nursing.
Dr. Mandy has treated many pregnant women and has seen first hand how beneficial chiropractic care is during pregnancy and in motherhood.
Why Choose a Prenatal Chiropractor?
Pregnancy places unique physical demands on your body. As your centre of gravity shifts, ligaments relax, and joints move to accommodate your growing baby, many women develop discomfort and pain — especially in the lower back, pelvis, and hips. A qualified pregnancy chiropractor can help relieve this tension, improve alignment, and support your overall well-being throughout your pregnancy.
A prenatal chiropractor in Vancouver uses gentle, modified techniques designed specifically for expectant mothers. These techniques prioritize safety and comfort while addressing common pregnancy-related issues like:
- Back pain during pregnancy
- Sciatica during pregnancy
- Pelvic and sacroiliac (SI) joint dysfunction
- Postural strain and imbalance
- Neck and shoulder tension
By supporting your musculoskeletal system, chiropractic care enhances mobility, reduces discomfort, and encourages better posture as your body adapts to pregnancy’s changes.
Maternity Chiropractic Care with Specialized Techniques
At Bloom Wellness, we provide comprehensive prenatal chiropractic care that includes the Webster Technique — a gentle, evidence-based approach many women find helpful during pregnancy. This specialized method focuses on optimizing pelvic alignment and reducing sacral and SI joint tension, which may contribute to greater comfort and improved function throughout pregnancy and birth.
Whether you’re looking for a maternity chiropractor, a pregnancy chiropractor in Vancouver, or prenatal chiropractic Vancouver expertise, our team is trained to deliver personalized care plans that meet you where you’re at — trimester by trimester.
What to Expect at Your Chiropractic Visit
Your first visit with a prenatal chiropractor in North Vancouver begins with a detailed consultation where we review your health history, pregnancy progress, and any discomfort you’re experiencing. A gentle physical assessment follows, which helps us understand your spinal alignment, pelvic balance, and overall muscular tension. Based on this assessment, we’ll create a care plan tailored to your unique needs.
Expect techniques that are designed for comfort and effectiveness — including supportive positioning, gentle adjustments, and soft tissue work that ease discomfort without forceful manipulation.
Supporting Your Pregnancy & Beyond
Chiropractic care is not just about pain relief — it’s about helping you enjoy pregnancy with greater ease, better mobility, and enhanced overall wellness. Many expectant mothers report:
- Improved posture and spinal balance
- Reduced back pain during pregnancy and pelvic discomfort
- Relief from sciatica during pregnancy
- Enhanced comfort as your body changes
Plus, continued care after birth helps with postnatal recovery, addressing tension and alignment issues that can arise from nursing, carrying your baby, and adapting to life with a newborn.
